Covea Finance sold an overwhelming 56,857 shares of AMETEK, leaving investors speculating on potential reasons behind the move. On the brighter side,
GAM Holding AG acquired 10,849 shares of the same company, suggesting varied market opinions.
AMETEK's return trends have been viewed as unappealing by some, even though the majority of the company remains held by institutional shareholders who own an impressive 89% of total shares. The company continues to grow, with modest success, credited largely to its ongoing M&A strategies. Despite facing stiff competition from other Internet of Things stocks,
AMETEK's Q1 earnings managed to pique interest. Recent transactions include an increased stake by
Exchange Traded Concepts LLC and shares acquisition by
James Hambro & Partners LLP. Notably,
AMETEK recently declared its quarterly dividend and has shown strong margins and strategic growth, as evident from its Q1 2025 Earnings Call Highlights. It has also solidified its position in the 3D Metrology landscape with the massive $920M acquisition of
FARO Technologies. However, the company's stock has seen a 10% drop due to escalating trade tensions, leading to certain shareholders feeling restless over AMETEK's P/E ratio.
